In Rehoboth, police arrested a teen for making threats, which specifically mentioned Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School and firearms, through Twitter on Tuesday, according to officials.

Police were able to trace the account to the 17-year-old’s home, where he admitted to the threats and said it was a prank feeding off of the clown stories in the news nationwide, according to a statement on the department’s Facebook page.

Police said students or residents weren’t in any actual danger. The teen was released to his parents on bail and will be tried in Bristol County Juvenile Court in Taunton.
